> CEMENT ADHESIVES.<br />
Some of the bonding materials most commonly used on the market today are: Cement adhesives. These consist of a main bin<strong>de</strong>r (Portland cement)<br />
and sands and other additives that improve the adhesive’s characteristics. Cement adhesives inclu<strong>de</strong>:<br />
> Conventional Glue Mortars.<br />
Organic products are ad<strong>de</strong>d to the mortar to<br />
improve its elastic and water-retaining properties,<br />
thereby remedying the failings of traditional<br />
mortar. These are used only for indoor surfaces.<br />
Class C1 according to EN 12004.<br />
> Glue Mortars with Casein.<br />
These are used especially on tile-laying surfaces<br />
ma<strong>de</strong> of plaster and/or gypsum. Class C2E<br />
according to EN 12004.<br />
> High-specification Glue Mortars.<br />
These can contain up to approximately 2% of<br />
thermoplastic resins to improve adhesion. They<br />
are suitable for interiors and outdoor floor<br />
surfaces. Class C2 according to EN 12004.<br />
> Glue Mortars with Mixed Bin<strong>de</strong>rs.<br />
These usually contain more than 2% thermoplastic<br />
resins, either incorporated or in the form of a<br />
water-based dispersant to add to the pow<strong>de</strong>r.<br />
These glue mortars have improved adhesion,<br />
<strong>de</strong>formability, resistance, etc., and are the best<br />
products to use for <strong>de</strong>manding applications. Class<br />
C2E and C2TE according to EN 12004.<br />

ADVANTAGES DRAWBACKS<br />
USES<br />
> Easy to use<br />
> Excellent adhesion<br />
> Deformable<br />
> Suitable for any kind of<br />
tile-laying surface<br />
> Suitable for tiles with no<br />
absorption<br />

> Low resistance to contact with water<br />
> Indoor walls<br />
These compounds are based on synthetic resins that har<strong>de</strong>n due to the chemical reaction between the various components. They usually have<br />
excellent specifications, plus the resins provi<strong>de</strong> special technical characteristics. However, their main drawback is that all the component resins<br />
must be mixed, meaning that they must be carefully handled. Type R according to EN 12004.<br />
